Carl Long, a world-famous professional stock car racing driver, had
to remove the logo of a Colorado-based
cannabis vaping company Veedverks from his car. According to NASCAR,
the logo was not vetted and approved as per procedure. Apparently,
NASCAR is not being hostile to weed; they are just appeasing their
inner grammar Nazi.

Also, according to Veedverks’ posts on social media, the company
intends to pay for the logo, despite not getting it on the car. “Our
word is our bond,” the company’s Facebook post explains.

Carl Long has recently returned to NASCAR’s
competitions after an eight-year banishment over an unpaid fine from
the rules violation earlier in the driver’s career. The penalty was
commuted this season.

The famous offensive lineman for the world-known Buffalo Bills, Seantrel Henderson, is suspended for the second time this season for violating the rules of NFL on drug use. However, Henderson’s case is not a common matter as it concerns the questions of the approach to dealing with pain and the rapidly changing attitudes toward marijuana legalization.
